Research-based Learning Strategies

Below is an alignment of Marzano's Research related to

Strategies	iPad Integration Examples	iPad Applications (Used in Wkshp/)
Identifying Similarities an Differences	Brainstorming and Students Planning in PBL; Math Word Problems; Digital Storytelling	Idea Sketch;
Summarizing and Note taking	Research in PBL, Storyboarding for Presentations	Pages; Dropbox; Good Reader; Index Card
Reinforcing Effort and Recognition	Reinforcing PBL benchmarks, Celebration at end of PBL activity, Strategically placing students in cooperative learning groups	Teacher evaluates and plans for student peer review continually throughout project using on-line products. (i.e., survey monkey)
Homework and Practice	Planning and correlating iPad apps with curriculum;	Curriculum Apps
Nonlinguistic Representation	This strategy can enhance a student's ability to represent and elaborate on knowledge using mental images	Idea Sketch; Index Card
Cooperative Learning	When students are provided with opportunities to interact with each other in a variety of ways their learning is enhanced	All Activities
Setting Objectives and Meeting Objectives	Setting objectives establishes a direction for learning.	PBL; Rubric; Peer Review
Generating and Testing Hypotheses	Students should be asked "what if?" as they plan and conduct simple investigations (e.g., formulate a testable question, make systematic observations, and develop logical conclusions).	Any app or web 2.0 tool where teachers ensures students are using activity collaboratively and not independently.
Cues, Questions, and Advanced Organizers	Ask higher-level questions. Think about how to phrase questions. By asking questions that require analysis, you prompt students to go beyond simple recall of information and help to develop their higher-order thinking skills	Same as above.
